Great Place

We loved the cabin and the large parking area. The cabin was spotless with plenty of dishes, pots & pans. The grill and firepit area was very comfortable and convenient. I am 88 years old and I've been renting cabins for about 15 years. Tyler was the best host we (my family) have had. He was very polite answering all my stupid questions. lol We were able to visit Bryson City, Cherokee, Gatlinburg, and Maggie Valley. If we are in this area again, I would definitely stay again.

Amazing cabin and views!

My husband and I went with our kids and grands on vacation and had so much fun! The cabin was clean and had beautiful mountain views. We did the Polar Express train ride right down the road, saw many Christmas lights, went to some waterfalls, Road to Nowhere tunnel, saw the elk, and also road over to Anakeesta in Gatlinburg one day. Highly recommend this cabin! Great location!

This property was as beautiful as the pictures showed. The deck was the perfect place to begin and end our days just sitting enjoying the beautiful views. We felt like kids again making s’mores at the fire pit. It was located not far from Cherokee and about an hour or so from Gatlinburg. All in all I would recommend this cabin to anyone looking in this area. Also, Gail was quick to answer any questions I had. It was a great experience all around.

Wonderful weekend at the cabin

Great communication from start to finish! Loved the separation of bedrooms on three different floors. Cabin was beautiful , roomy and comfortable! I thought there was going to be a hot tub off the master bedroom but it looks like it has been removed. Hot tub on bottom Level did not reheat quickly.

Cabin just like pictures!

The location was very close to everything we had planned for the couples getaway. We had a party of 6; 3 couples and it was private for each couple on each level, the bedroom upstairs don't have a tv so the couple up there was a little upset but again the pictures don't show one on it either. I suggest taking the small tv out of the living room and replacing with a bigger tv and place that one in the other bedroom. The sofa in the living is old and worn out it needs to be replaced, the sofas downstairs was more updated and comfortable. it's no separate dining room just like picture the table is in the middle of the kitchen. We moved it down so we would not be eating in the kitchen. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of dishes and cookware and cabinet space for your belongings.

Great location, centrally located!

We enjoyed our stay very much! We found the accommodations to be more than adequate for our needs. We were 2 families with young children in town for the Polar Express, which was a very easy drive to Bryson City. It is also very close to Cherokee, and we drove through the Great Smoky Mountain National Park to enjoy scenery. It is also located close to Sylva, which we found to be a cute little town, nicely decorated for the holidays. This cabin had everything we needed for sleeping, and cooking. There were plenty of extra blankets, towels, linens, etc. We enjoyed the hot tub on the porch in the cold weather! We did purchase our own firewood for the firepit, and charcoal for the grill. We cooked breakfast and dinner at the cabin with no problems! The kids loved the yard - it is hilly, but we come from the coast, so they loved running up and down and making their own little hideouts. The road into the neighborhood is one lane, so take caution, and the driveway is steep, but we did just fine in my Honda Odyssey. We highly recommend staying here to be centrally located to things that you need while enjoying a mountainous experience. We are looking forward to planning our next visit back next year for our 2nd Annual Polar Express train ride.

Everything was perfect, just wish we weren’t “watched” the whole time

Everything was perfect. Property manager meets you at the house upon arrival and was very nice at arrival. I’m guessing the security camera at the front deck is a motion camera because we received a text at almost 2am when a couple was standing on porch. Our group consisted of people in their 40s and early 50s then my husband and I in mid 30s. Aunts and Uncles came by at midnight that were staying at a different cabin near by to give him gifts/surprise him and just talking, laughing and having a good time sharing memories. They left around the same time the text was coming in. You are allowed to smoke a cigarette outside and one of the guest flicked it out of habit, which obviously we would pick up. The text came across judgemental. Earlier in the day we offered to start a load of linen to help out the cleaners. I apologized and said either way we always check around a property, keep a property clean and are adults we would never leave a property damaged or dirty or cigarette butts around (I found one in the gravel out back that I picked up that was from before us, but didn’t say anything because I was assuming it just got missed from the previous renter)... It felt like we were compared to renters in the past who celebrated a birthday that I guess didn’t care about a property being someone else’s. I was so ready to share this cabin on my travel site and with friends and family, but now I won’t because when I vacation I like privacy. If the house was a mess or rules broken, then address that at checkout. However, we received a text the next day saying everything was perfect, thanks for starting linen in the washer and that the home was how we found it. Other than that it’s a great place.
